    Travel

    All travel must be pre-registered prior to traveling. Please fill out this form online and submit it.

    Pre-Travel

    • The traveler will fill out the online form with as much information as possible. When the form is submitted, the designated travel coordinator will receive a copy. You travel coordinator will complete the pre-travel steps in Concur on your behalf and submit for approval.
    • Please note, OSU now requires ALL out of state/international trips with an OSU related business purpose to have a pre-travel request in Concur, as a department we request the same for in-state travel as it makes the booking and reimbursement process much smoother.

    Post-travel

    • Please fill out the form again, choosing either the reimbursement option or the expense report option (if you need both for the same trip, please leave a note in the appropriate form field for your travel coordinator). Please follow up with an email to Tresa containing any receipts, quick explanations for expenses, names of other travelers you covered expenses for, etc. You may also drop physical receipts off at Tresa's office, CRB 2008, or send through campus mail.
    • Tresa will create the expense report/reimbursement request and email you when it is ready to be submitted.
    • Please note, out-of-pocket expenses for approved travel cannot be reimbursed until traveler has returned from the trip. Many expenses can be pre-paid with departmental/grant funds. Please connect with Tresa to utilize department/grant funds in the pre-travel stage.
